Grace is without sacrifice

[Jeffrey]

I just watched a short video and interview on the life of Delores Hart
and found it quite Soulfully stirring. She was a rising star in the
system of Hollywood movie and star making who chose to leave her fame
and enter a very austere community of nuns. There is a Wonderful and
intensely powerful aspect of Dolores' experience... quite
indescribable. Within our human system of limiting beliefs it is quite
common to find examples of thought, feeling, and behavior that
represent our attempt to reach or find God in ever more extreme
progressions of eccentric and arduous practices. It is most important
to realize that God has no sense or capacity for difficulty in any
form and could never ask such sacrifice of any part of His Creation.
These misunderstandings arise in our tendency to make a God according
to our long practiced and believed in error regarding ourselves. The
limiting or separate thought system of ego makes a poor and misleading
influence which is so dramatically and consistently attested to in our
long history of misunderstanding and resulting suffering.

Still, the indwelling Grace of Love's Presence utilizes all aspects of
our error prone experience for the personal and interactive Good of
all. No matter the intense difficulty and strain that we unnecessarily
inflict on ourselves in our short sighted attempts at helping
ourselves, this inner Creative Power and Intelligence finds a way to
transform our lonely and austere vigil into inevitable Gain and
Benefit. As long as we misidentify ourselves with the illusion of time
and space we invariably and consequently detain ourselves from the
Unspeakable Relm of Present and Abiding Love, Perfect Love... which
most certainly is the Living Truth of Who and What we are and It's
Complete and Unconditional Inclusiveness.

To Remember, Fully and without compromise, is simply to Be Present to
the Power and Glory of the Living God within and without... to Bless
and Honor His Creation, which opens our eyes and ears to See and
Hear... and Know The Self in whom the Father Is Well Pleased. Such an
Uncompromising Alignment and choice Frees the mind from it's
preoccupation with madness, restoring the Mercy, Law, and Order of
God's Will and releasing us from the unrewarding and unproductive
enslavement of ego misunderstanding. And this simple choice will work
Miracles of Wonder in our personal affairs as well as in the greater
occasion of our collective and shared experience. I highly recommend
this and without delay or hesitaion!

Love,

J
